नवमः प्रकाशः LUSTRE IX
१. पापाचरणादात्मरक्षा दया।
पापहेतुकमाचरणम्--प्राणातिपातादि, आर्तध्यानादि वा पापाचरणम्, तस्मात् स्वस्य परस्य वा आत्मनो रक्षणम्-ततो निवर्तनं दयाऽभिधीयते । यत्र अहिंसा तत्रैव दया, यत्र नाहिंसा न च तत्र दया, इत्यन्वयव्यतिरेकाद् द्वयोनित्यसम्बन्धित्वेऽपि लौकिकदयातः पार्थक्यप्रकाशनार्थ
मेव अस्याः पृथक् व्याख्यानम् । 1. pāpācaranādātmaraksā dayā.
pāpahetukam ācaraṇam-prāņātipātādi, ārttadhyānādi vā pāpācaraņam, tasmāt svasya parasya vā ātmano rakṣaṇam-tato nivartanam daya bhidhiyate. yatra ahimsa tatraiva daya, yatra nahimsa na ca tatra dayā, ity anvaya-vyatirekād dvayor nityasambandhitve'pi laukikadayātaḥ pārthakyaprakāśanārtham eva asyāḥ pệthak vyākhyānam. (Aph.) Protection of the soul from sinful activity is compassion. (I)
(Gloss) Sinful activity consists in activities leading to sin, for instance, killing and the like or concentration due to anguish and the like. The protection, that is, dissuasion of one's own self or others from this is called compassion. Only where there is non-violence there is compassion. In the absence of non-violence there cannot be compassion. Inspite of this universal concomitance in agreement and difference between the two, it (viz. compassion) has been separately explained in order to show its distinction from the compassion popular.
२. सदुपदेशविपाकचिन्तनप्रत्याख्यानादयोऽस्या उपायाः । 2. sadupadeśa-vipākacintana-pratyākhyānādayo’syā upāyāḥ.
(Aph.) The instruments for (the cultivation of) compassion are: right persuation, deliberation on karmic fruition (of violent indulgence), administering vows of abstinence from causing injury to living beings. (II) ३. लोके प्राणरक्षापि।
शरीरेण सह प्राणानां यः संयोगस्तस्य देशता सर्वतो वा रक्षणमपि लोके
